[DANCE] A new burlesque troupe is on the scene and they’re called Femme Noire. The contemporary burlesque fusion dance company will make their debut at a special event at the Town Ballroom’s Leopard Lounge on Saturday, August 27. The show, creatively titled Sex, Jugs, & Rock n’ Roll, will feature the four women including dancer and artistic director Ebony Jones—stage names MaDamn Noire, Vivi L’Amour Noire, Cocoa Noire, Lady Noire, and Satine Noire—not only rocking out but also showing off their hip hop dancing skills, jazz hands, and classic burlesque moves. Local hip hop/funk band PeaceBridge will deliver some covers and original songs throughout the night as well. Expect raffles, vendors, giveaways, and additional music from DJ Assata Shapvrr and MC Monica.
